Can we ever just kill something new early in the night? First pull 9% … then we spent the rest of the night on it until the final pull of the night finally did the trick. It’s just so easy for one little wrong move to end it all. Then again, a lot of bosses are like that when you are right at the gear level to face them … no room for error. Once we get it though, it just gets easier each time. Heck, I even lived through the tornadoes on Tay’ak this week.

It’s probably a good thing we took all night though. I haven’t looked at any of the bosses past him, so I would have been clueless. This way, I can go in next week all prepared and stuff.

Left to right: Adoe, Slice (Liyhe) petting Gurgie, me, Zarm is in the back jumping up and down or something, Sorak standing behind Zug, half-nekkid Arv, and Lyss in disguise. I think Shadeey might be behind Adoe.

I like this picture better though … Zug with the infamous table throw.

I think we should have traded, his matches my outfit. And yes, I’m riding a plain old windrider. I have a random mount addon, so that all of them get a chance to come out once in awhile.

Took a few tries with some bad chain combos and stuff, but we downed the dogs AND everyone had the right pet out.

Hm, looks like I had my HoT on Fayle. Must have misclicked something.

I didn’t hit my screenshot button fast enough on Feng because I wasn’t expecting an achievement, but we got that one as well. Arv rocks, nuff said.

That took a few pulls, as did Gara’jal, but we got them all and moved on to pull the Spirit Kings three or four times before quitting time. On our best pull we got two of them down and were working on the third when it all went to hell, so we knew it wouldn’t take long to get the hang of it.

Not long is a bit of an understatement, as we went in last night and downed them on the first pull.

There WAS a slight delay in getting the raid started though, as Ahmule noticed several hundred stacks of cheap ore for sale, so some of us got a bit distracted filling up our gbank tabs. >.>

Alright! Let’s go kill us a star dragon.

Yeah … the TRASH leading up to Elegon kicked our asses. We one shot the Spirit Kings … and wiped repeatedly on trash. We did get through it eventually, thanks to the super kiting skills of Adoe, but geez. And Elegon himself is going to be a couple nights of learning. There is a lot going on that has to be timed right, plus the tight enrage, and so many phases to learn. It’s like LK or Rag … totally seems like an end boss.

I had a bit of fun standing inside the ring and playing around with the celestial form it gives me, though.

So the old content running for transmog gear is in full force, even on the Horde side where they all claim to not care about that stuff (other than Slice, he’s got a big … wardrobe). Of course, there are others that have been running stuff for rep anyway. So it’s not unusual for me to get a whisper from Arv inviting me to whatever place he’s heading to. This time he had Zug with him, and they were in AQ. Besides bug mounts, C’Thun was the last boss I needed to get Classic Raider, so of course I dropped what I was doing and headed on over.

I don’t know if I just had no clue how to do Twin Emps before or if they changed some of the mechanics, but Zug said as long as you have a DoT on your target, he will come back to you after they swap around, so you never really have to move, just wait for yours to return. It worked perfectly.

Zug looted the tentacle that dropped, and had a great time last night in our T11 run showing it off.

When we were checking out the questgivers, Zug noticed how we were all lined up and color-coded and got this nice screenshot to send me.
